Maybe because I had started a response but thought I'd check again before posting and cancelled. I had already checked when I asked which version it was and at the time based on these numbers it is a fake racquet. Since the numbers are still the same the conclusion still is: fake . With that shaft serial you're looking at an August 2005 cone code, not March 2006 as highlighted in bold red.

thanks for the info.. i sorta of figured as much since the there was some quality issues on the racquet compared to my carbonex 8400

Yes I saw it earlier and for this shaft serial it could start with 050 (cone code is probably 050112SP). The pictures look okay to me and the store I have seen mentioned many times and should be legit. There are other who could also help out with checking the pictures and comparing but for the numbers if you want to know you should really remove the sticker ...

I have double checked and the cone code is correct. As for the name of the shop it's called Perfect Sports in Kota Damansara (Malaysia). This outlet was just recently opened and they have another outlet in Pertama Complex (Malaysia). Hope this helps.

for info, Perfect Sports actually owned by Racket World at Pertama Kompleks. But perfect sports is mean for selling sport shirts/pants and yonex low end rackets i.e. made in taiwan/china.... supposed they are hv good repo not selling fake. i guess.....

Okay, since I had one entry with an earlier shaft serial but later cone code from here: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/foru...hlight=9599888
But turns out I wrote 090902JP instead of 090802JP. For 090802JP that one would even be a fake actually but yours should be fine now that the error has been removed . The one in the other thread might actually be 080902JP instead as well ...

Not even sure how it was entered incorrectly since I usually just copy-paste ... could be I had the file open on my pc and the internet connection in my laptop that has no open office on it.
